Castor Oil x 500ml

Nutrigold Castor oil is derived from castor beans and is used externally with packing fabric as a technique to support health. Castor oil uses have dated back to early Egyptian times, used by many practitioners, healers and used by naturopaths worldwide. Castor oil is rich in a fatty acid called Ricinoleic Acid extracted from the castor seed Ricinus Communis which is where the healing properties are considered to be found.

Nutrigold castor oil is the refined grade, hexane free, cold pressed, 100% pesticide free, non-hybridised, free of preservatives and additives and non-solvent extracted.

Use: Open the packing fabric (Product Code: NC007) and fold into three.

You can then move the pack to your chosen area, packing for another 30 - 60 minutes, or as directed by a practitioner.
